IG PHOTO VIDEO INC. was the perfect photographer (we had two photographers and one videographer) for our wedding day. From the start, their communication was receptive and responsive, with quick replies to our emails. The quality of their work was excellent - the photos are clear and crisp, with a wide range of styles captured. Ivan and Tae, the two photographers, and Svitlana, the videographer, were all a pleasure to work with. They asked thoughtful questions to understand the specific details we wanted captured and helped facilitate smooth coordination with the bridal party. The price was very reasonable for the great quality photos and video they delivered, which perfectly documented all the small details of our special day. We're thrilled to have 50 4x6 prints to cherish, as well as a USB with all the photos and videos.

  • Serves Durand, IL

Laree Photo & Video specializes in capturing unforgettable moments through stunning wedding photography and videography. Based in the Chicago suburbs, our team is dedicated to creating timeless images and films that reflect the unique love story of each couple. Stephanie Schmidt, the owner and lead photographer, specializes in both artistic and documentary styles. She strives to preserve every detail of your special day in the most beautiful way. You can trust Stephanie and her team to deliver lasting memories you'll cherish forever.

Stephanie is just incredible! We hired her for our big day and had our engagement shoot with her downtown. We had never had photos done before and had no idea what to expect. She took incredible pictures of us but the best part was she made us feel like we were just hanging out with a friend and it made it all worth it because our pictures showed our awkward but fun side because we felt comfortable. Fast forward to our wedding day, we had to reschedule our reception due to Covid so we didn’t have a ceremony but we did have all the time in the world for photos and we made the most of it. It gave us all the extra time to do a first look with the best man in a wedding dress, and more. We didn’t worry about our timeline but we never felt rushed when times were going back to back. She checked in with us multiple times to make sure we had what we needed and took pictures of all the fun details so now when we look back we have all the memories and can enjoy the night like a guest. Fast forward to this year, we loved working with her so much as our family is expanded we reached out to have her do our pregnancy announcement photos AND our newborn photos with our little man. It is so special to find someone you trust and can deliver exactly what you need and more. Cannot recommend Stephanie and her team enough!

Erik Anderson - Photography, LLC.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Durand, IL

I'm a 35-year-old husband to Samantha, our son Silas, daughter Fiona, and our wiggler companion Moxie. I've been a wedding photographer for 11 years, having photographed over 300 weddings and countless other sessions! My hobby is also my job, and you bet my wife loves that, haha. I am also a stay-at-home dad, a philatelist, a Lego freak, and a craft beer nerd, and we have an orange fridge, haha.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are looking for your wedding photographer: stop. You’ve found him. Erik was hands-down our favorite vendor, and I would hire him a thousand times over. From the very first message, his energy, warmth, and passion for his work stood out. When we compared full galleries from other photographers, his absolutely blew us away with every detail, every candid, every bit of light and color was exactly what I envisioned. My dad (a longtime advertising professional) reviewed them too and said, “You’d be crazy not to hire this guy.” He was right. Working with Erik felt effortless. Our engagement session could have been a stressful day, but he and his second shooter, Ross, rolled with everything, made it fun, and delivered stunning images so quickly we were able to use them in our wedding décor and guest book. By the time the wedding came, we felt completely comfortable in front of the camera and Erik felt like another close friend in our bridal party. He was calm, reassuring, and so easy to be around. If I had a question or needed grounding, he was right there with gentle guidance. The final gallery? Absolutely flawless. Every big, emotional moment. Every quiet, unspoken glance. Every little detail I didn’t even notice in real time, all preserved with such artistry that I can relive our day exactly as it felt, only better. Erik has an uncanny gift for being everywhere without ever intruding, for making people feel at ease, and for capturing the heart of a moment in a single frame. My family, my bridal party, even my guests still talk about him months later — not just about his photos, but about him. He’s more than a photographer; he’s a calming presence, a joy to be around, and a true master of his craft. In every lifetime, in every version of this story, I would choose Erik. Booking him was one of the best decisions we made for not only our wedding day, but for the rest of our lives we’ll thankfully have his work! I will forever be grateful that it was him behind the camera on the most important day of our lives.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Erin. She drove nearly three hours to be with us on our wedding day and was so kind, professional, and easy to work with. She made us feel completely at ease and captured everything—from beautifully posed portraits to the sweetest candid moments. What we loved most is her vibrant, true-to-life photography style. Every photo feels full of energy and emotion—like we’re stepping right back into those special moments. She truly captured the magic of our day in a way we’ll cherish forever. We feel so lucky to have had her as part of our wedding and couldn’t be happier with how our photos turned out. If you’re considering booking her—don’t hesitate.

From the moment we first contacted Forest City Photographs, we were impressed by their attentive, warm, and professional communication. Joel and his team have an incredible eye for capturing precious, genuine, and timeless moments. On our wedding day, Joel (and Tyler!) managed to beautifully document the most vulnerable and special moments, transporting us back to the best day of our lives every time we look at the photos. The value they provided is truly priceless, and we couldn't be happier with the incredible work they delivered. We are absolutely blown away. You can clearly tell from their work as well as a single conversation with them, that they LOVE what they do and they pour their passion into these photographs. The amount of gratitude we have for Forest City Photographs is immeasurable!! ️ We would choose them a million times over and over again!

Timeless | Romantic | Classic Wedding photographer - I believe in the idea that "great photos are created from personal connection."

Located in Northern Illinois, couples who choose me are looking for clean, natural, and timeless wedding photography. My style is very candid and photojournalistic, but also artistic and professional. My editing style is very clean, keeping your images timeless.

Holly Johns Photography was the absolute easiest photography vendor to communicate with. Holly is timely, always prepared, and beyond supportive! And her skill with photos speaks for itself. Holly is a true professional, kind, hard working, and excellent at her craft. She contributed so much to our special day - not only did she give us the most stunning photos, but she kept our whole day running smoothly! Holly made sure we had time to eat, drink water, mingle with our families, try the appetizers we wanted, and was so endlessly kind and supportive. It was the best vendor experience I've ever had. If you don't hire Holly, you are MISSING OUT!!! I would recommend her to anyone, and I'm looking forward to continuing to have her capture all of our big life moments.

I'm Courtney! I care not only about providing you with sharp, authentic and colorful images on your wedding day, but helping you to be fully present on your wedding day so you remember all the big and little moments.

Courtney was AMAZING! I found Expedition Joy on instagram when she was doing a giveaway contest for a free Engagement session. To our suprise and BIGGEST BLESSING— we won! When my husband and I met Courtney, we instantly clicked! She was so easy to talk to and made us feel so comfortable so quickly! She was very intentional about building trust with her and having a friendship as well! We had great conversations during our shoot and got to learn about her aswell! After our session, my husband and I both agreed that we NEEDED Courtney to be a part of our big day. We expressed our excitement with Courtney just as much as she expressed hers with us! During the planning months, she was so easy to reach and made us feel confident that she would go above and beyond for us on our special day and she DID. Courtney showed up camera in hand and started shooting the second she walked in the door! She was ON IT. She continued to encourage the bridal party and family so they felt comfortable as she was taking photos. She was so intentional with everyone! Courtney and her second shooter were the life of the party on the dance floor! They had a blast with us and it was so much fun for all of our guests to cheer them on when they went to bust a move in the center circle! Courtney continued her 5-star reputation throughout the night and even went above and beyond to stay past our contracted time for our grand exit! She took the most memorable photos of our day, we will always remeber her when we reminisce on our beautiful photos! She truly is Expedition Joy

My love for photography began in Rockford, IL, where I discovered storytelling through a lens. Over the years, I’ve captured Midwest landscapes, national parks, and life’s meaningful moments. What started with local events and concerts grew into a passion for weddings and portraiture. I believe the best photos come from genuine connections, so I prioritize building relationships to understand your story and vision. Whether celebrating love, connection, or a fleeting moment, I’m here to calm nerves, share laughter, and capture memories you’ll cherish forever. Let’s create something timeless and yours.

Working with Tyler Yomantas Photography was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. His communication style was easy, efficient, and comfortable, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of his work was truly exceptional - creative, informed, and worth every penny. Tyler is our go-to for everything photography related, as his portfolio speaks for itself. He has an eye for the smallest detail and made every step of the way a comfortable one. With his extensive background and experience, Tyler truly captured all the special moments of our wedding day with care and expertise.

I'm Chrissy and I'm a documentary wedding photographer with 10+ years of experience who fully believes that your life deserves to be documented truthfully. My focus at your wedding isn't to steal you away from your family and friends for hours to make "art," but to empathically capture the moments and relationships present at your wedding. Your wedding photos are the single most important wedding investment you'll make. After the day is done and over, they will be what tethers you to your memories of your day. They will be the heirlooms you'll pass down to your grandchildren to hang on walls and sit on bedsides for generations to come.

We loved Chrissy! She was fun and easy to work with, and I loved that she provided color and black/white photos. She did everything on our list, and listened to our ideas as well. Nothing felt forced or over-posed, but she was great at guiding next moves when needed. Will definitely use again for future photos.

My name is Michelle, but my friends call me Meesh, so you can too! Most days you can find me editing pictures at Starbucks, working on home projects with my husband, and probably drinking absurd amounts of sparkling water. I've lived in Wisconsin, the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Iowa, and currently live in Northern Illinois so you could basically say my heart belongs to the Midwest. I take weddings and sessions all around the Midwest and really all over the country! I’ve been told I’m the “mom” of the friend group and I LIVE to be over prepared!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

The communication throughout the entire process was great and we’d definitely recommend OLAS. We aren’t great at posing ourselves so we loved that our photographer and videographer’s ability to come up with great poses and backgrounds! We loved how all of the photos showed everyone’s genuine emotions of the day so well!
